The Millennium Countdown Clock

Just how much time do we have NOW, before the Year 2000?? Take a look at the Countdown Clock on the left and you'll be amazed by how time flies................... Well, time is precious, that's why everyone is rushing to eliminate the millennium bug aliasY2K bug. Can you imagine how life would be if the Y2K bug wrecks havoc on the world's computer systems on that fateful day, 01 January 2000??? All of us wouldn't be able to use our computers which we rely so much on. We will not be able to withdraw money from ATMs as banks would be crippled by the bug. In the worst case scenario, planes would suddenly plunge from the sky, ships will lose contact with one another and cars will collide into each other when traffic lights go haywire.

Shouldn't we be prepared for all these? Fortunately, some people realised these dire consequences early and have already taken measures to eradicate this malicious bug. Nevertheless, there's no harm in being more prepared. As the saying goes, "prevention is better than cure". Check out the Y2KNET or The Year 2000 Information Centre for some tips to survive through the millennium. For a lighter side of Y2K, visit Year 2000 Cartoons by Randy Glasbergen for some comic relief.

 

The millennium bug is, but only one of the factors that will contribute towards the end of the world prediction. Other factors include: The Third World War (a nuclear war to end all wars) Famines, droughts, floods and other natural disasters Astronomical phenomena such as a comet as huge as a continent crashing into Earth, aliens from outer space out to conquer Earth.....................much like in the movie I.D.4..................  A space station or shuttle exloding and raining debris onto Earth Worldwide economic recession affecting every country New & deadly viruses that can mutate into antibiotic-resistant ones Malicious computer viruses which can spread through internet & networks, erasing all data on harddisks

Imagine what would happen if all of these occur at the same time??? Human beings definitely would be wiped out from the face of the Earth. I'm not trying to be overly pessimistic, but just to share with you how fragile or vulnerable our dear Earth is. Today, there're countless websites dedicated to the "Doomsday" prediction by Nostradamus. Check out these -- Countdown to Armageddon and Prophecies Insights
